English for
Arabic speakers.
Cool Mate translates every word, example, and grammar note into Arabic. Right-to-left support, native English audio, and a feed designed for Arabic speakers.
Free to start. No textbook. No streak shame.
Built for Arabic speakers
Tuned to how Arabic speakers actually learn English.
Arabic translations everywhere
Definitions, examples, and grammar notes translated by native Arabic editors. Modern Standard Arabic by default.
Right-to-left support
The app handles Arabic script and direction natively without breaking the English half of the screen.
Sounds that Arabic does not have
P, V, and the soft G. The feed surfaces these and trains them with slow-mo audio.
Miss a week, keep your progress
The Leitner box quietly catches you back up. No daily pressure.
Easy wins
Arabic speakers already know these.
Words that look or sound nearly the same in Arabic and English. Free vocabulary the day you start.

Watch out
The traps Arabic speakers usually fall into.
False friends, missing sounds, and the patterns school never warned you about.
Arabic has no P sound. Pepsi often comes out as Bebsi. Slow-mo audio fixes this.
Arabic uses F for both. Very and ferry get mixed.
Egyptian Arabic uses a hard G. Standard Arabic uses a soft J. English varies.
Arabic puts adjectives after the noun. English puts them before.
Arabic uses the article more often than English. Common mistake: "the life is hard" instead of "life is hard".

Where to start
Pick a starting level that matches your reality.
We suggest A1 for most Arabic speakers.
Most Arabic speakers start at A1 to build the core 1,000 words. School English usually pushes you toward A2 within weeks.
How it works
Built for the way memory actually works.
Learn the phrase the way it's actually said.
Every challenge is a 3 to 15 second cut from a real show, news clip, or talk. You hear the rhythm, the stress, and the face behind the words.
An algorithm that times every clip.
An invisible Leitner box runs in the background. Each word comes back at the moment you're about to forget it. Fifty years of memory research, one tap.
Native audio, full speed and slow.
Every word has full-speed and slow-mo native audio. Tap once to copy the pronunciation the way a native actually says it.
Twelve native languages.
Definitions, examples, and grammar notes translate into your native language. Switch any time.
